​There may come a time in a relationship, as things get more serious, the question, “what is your number?” may be asked. Of course, that question is normally only asked or answered in a serious relationship.

So assume, the relationship is serious enough to provide an answer. There is a decision to be made on how to answer. Self-inflicted shame and guilt may tempt you to be other than honest. What kind of number is acceptable for your partner?

Does your behavior contradict or affirm your goals/beliefs? Are you worried what your number says about how you behave and what you believe.

If you are going to answer, you should answer the question honestly. You should have answered it for yourself, honestly, by now. By the way, if you can’t answer honestly; you are not serious about the relationship and self-deceived.

So how should you answer the question, “What's your number?”

Get your mind out off your crotch, for minute. I’m not talking about sex but rather money.
